Event: November 12 - 24 2018

The Embodiment Conference – An online celebration of reconnection with the body

November 12 – 24th 2018

We are doing something new and ambitious and you’re warmly invited. From November 12th – 24th 2018, over eighty renowned teachers will come together to share their experience in an online global event. We will explore a wide range of embodiment topics, including yoga, therapy, creativity, natural movement, meditation, martial arts, bodywork and ecology. If you’re interested in the body, there will be something for you. It’ll be a great way to both deepen your current understanding and broaden your perspectives.

This conference will connect you with others who love embodiment, give you a broad overview of the field, allow free access to genuine experts (wherever you are) and enrich your own current practice.

The conference consists of hour-long Zoom sessions (these are like group Skype calls), including interviews, interactive workshops, presentations and discussions. These will be spread across time zones globally, so you have the chance to attend some live. All calls will be recorded for you to watch in your own time (they’re freely available for one week). The content will be available as a package to purchase one week after the event. This model ensures it is available to everyone for free, while still covering our costs.

Our goal is to create a global community, and make embodied learning available to everyone.

Welcome from your conference host, Mark Walsh

“I love embodiment. Since I was a child it’s been my life, passion and work. In that time I’ve also witnessed the global reach of embodiment spread with the internet’s rise. Through YouTube, podcasts, social media and online learning, I’ve seen people from diverse fields start to come together, and those who didn’t have access before, are now being given it freely. Nothing makes me happier than this technology-enabled, somatic revolution, and it’s time to accelerate it. People’s disconnection from themselves leads to disconnection from each other and also from the planet. Cognitively-privileged alienation is killing us, and the world can no longer afford a disembodied populace. Time to step up.

In this conference, we’ve envisioned something bold. We have a great organising team, the necessary technology, and something a bit special is possible. What Google has done with information, this conference will start to do with embodied experience: to make what is wise, world-changing and always at hand, freely available to all. We want to connect those globally who share passion for this work, and offer leaders in this field a wider reach for the good that they do. Typically, organizers of events say they are ‘excited’, but this does not sum up the deep yearning and sense of purpose that I have for this conference. It will be profound. You are warmly invited.”
